Mastic sealing for Iping sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

FAQs: Iping

Will you take on a block within reach of Liphook station?

Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

Can you work at a site such as Midhurst Business Centre, by Iping?

Yes. We cover Iping and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Midhurst Business Centre. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

We plan around people living or working in the building. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.

Is Iping in your area?

Yes. We take on work across Iping.

How long before the joints can be used?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

Mastic sealing in Iping

There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product. If you have cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and open joints in brickwork or panels, we can help. For commercial sealant work in Iping, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

In and around smaller places like Iping, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Why deal with it now?

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee and one 12-month guarantee. Converted and older buildings near places like Iping tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Why us?

  • Matching to RAL references, product permitting
  • One number for every site we cover
  • Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit
  • Commercial sealant work since 2005

Cost factors for mastic joints

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What to include in your enquiry

To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • The postcode of the building

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. If you have questions first, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Blocks and managed buildings in Iping

Iping is about 46 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. Iping sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.

If your remit includes a building such as Stedham Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. If you are responsible for a building such as Church of St Mary, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Different surfaces, different methods

Window and door perimeters on blocks

On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.

Communal areas

We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. We work in sections so access is never blocked.

When to call us in Iping

In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Regular cleaning wears them further.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Window mastic that has split and shrunk
  • Complaints coming in block by block
  • Water getting in round frames after rain
  • Draught complaints from residents or tenants

If you look after a block within reach of Liphook station, 5 miles to the north of Iping, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How they handle RAMS and site documents
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards

Our contractor checklist

On site: what to expect

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a building around Iping, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
  4. Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

When to bring in a specialist

Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
